Materials Data on CaVO3 by Materials Project
CaVO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.72 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.69 Å. There are four inequivalent V4+ sites. In the first V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–25°. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–1.99 Å. In the second V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–25°. There is two shorter (1.91 Å) and four longer (1.98 Å) V–O bond length. In the third V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–25°. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.02 Å. In the fourth V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–25°. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.03 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and two V4+ atoms.
